About three weeks ago when I started my car I started to drive only to realize my speedometer wasn't moving making my odometer not go either. For about 2 weeks after it would come to for a day or two then go out for a day or two. Finally it worked for about 5 miles and I turned my car off and came back out and since it hasn't worked - this was about a week ago. I just replaced the Vehicle Speed Sensor today and it is still stuck. My car isn't having any gear shifting or driving problems, but its a pain not having this speed info. What should be my next course of action - is there a cable, the cluster, or something else. Any help is much appreciated.

It sounds like the meter itself is going bad, please replace it and get back to me :-)
